* Interpolated Resolutions: when resolutions are shown that are lower than the pixel

count of the LCD module, text my appear chappy or lines may appear to be bold. This is

normal and necessary for all current flat panel technologies, each dot on the screen is

actually one pixel, so to expand resolutions to full screen, an interpolation of the

resolution must be done. When the interpolated resolutions is not an exact multiple of

the native resolution, the mathematical interpolation necessary may cause some lines to

appear thicker than others.

** NEC cites recommend resolutions at 60 Hz for optimal display performance.
